A young woman was blindfolded and sexually assaulted in her home by an intruder who claimed someone had sent him to kill her. The attack occurred on May 16 in Moruga.
Police said the assailant entered the victim’s home by removing three louvre panes from a window. The 26-year-old woman told police she had retired to bed around 11 pm but shortly after, she was awakened by a man’s voice. “Somebody send me to kill yuh but ah wouldn’t kill yuh,” the assailant told her. She could see nothing, as the room was dark.
The victim started to scream but he grabbed her shoulder, slapped her across her face and threatened to kill her.
“Doh make no noise before I kill yuh,” he instructed.
Afraid for her life, she obeyed him. He used a piece of cloth to blindfold her, took off her clothes, then raped and sodomised her. He also forced her to perform oral sex.
After the almost hour-long ordeal, the assailant jammed an object against her neck and ordered her not to move as he escaped. Investigations are ongoing.
